Many today claim Christianity is toxic, bigoted, patriarchal, Western, imperialist, and repressive. However, the biblical teaching that every human being is made in God's image is the foundation for our regard for human dignity and freedom.
In this breakout session from TGCW24, Sharon James explores the profound ways Christians have influenced the world for the better in areas such as justice, philanthropy, health care, education, and the dignity of women.
She discusses the following:
- The story of Sarah Martin
- The influence of Christianity on human rights and freedom
- Justice and the rule of law
- Protection of life and the sanctity of human dignity
- Relief of human need and philanthropy
- Education and women's empowerment
- The dignity of women and Christian ethics
- The role of Christianity in modern society
